SALES HONOR —James A. Hops, right, formerly of Eden
ton, accepts President’s Roundtable award from Robert K.
Wichmann, president, Eastern Division, Pioneer Hi-Bred In
ternational, Inc.
A Courteous Beginning
by Walter Noneman
My pastor reminded me the
other day, there is something
really healthy about a new
year. It gives us a chance to
start over. We have all had
some disappointments, and
we have all made some
mistakes. But all this has past
now. The old is gone. It’s a
new day. It’s a new year -
1983.
The close of a year and the
beginning of a new year offers
each of us a chance to do two
things we really need to do.
We can and should look back
at the year ending and
evaluate our accomplish
ments and shorcomings and
determine why. We should
also look ahead at the year
coming and determine to
minimize our shortcomings
and maximize our
accomplishments.
